depletions
Gradual using up
Depletions are reductions in quantity, especially of resources or reserves.
The term appears most often in contexts involving natural resources, finances, or physical stores: oil depletions, depletions of the ozone layer, inventory depletions.
In accounting and taxation, depletions refer specifically to allowances for the exhaustion of natural resources like minerals or timber.
